Cosmere picked up by Apple TV

Ands that a big reason I am excited for the TV adaptions: no matter the freedom apple gives him, there is no way a good TV producer would allow for some voiceover narrator doing endless repetitions of character internal monologues.

Uh oh.

That said, it was probably necessary for this show. From what I have read of Stormlight Archives, absolutely not necessary there.

Oh, for Murder ot it was a absolute necessity...the novels are fully first person with tremendous interiority. While I like the interiority of the Stormlight Archives fine...not necessary to capture that in an adaptation in the same way. If Sanderson is using Jackson's Lord of the Rings as his guide for Stormlight Archives, sacrificing intwroorotybecause it is a TV show shouldn't be an issue.

The internal monologues don't really bother me, since that is pretty much how I think myself.

Based on what you post here, I would assume you have much more interesting thoughts than Shallan.

ike "The Way of Kings is The Mighty Ducks" as central

wait what? what is this about? I tried to google it but couldnt find anything

For sure, and I know because Sanderson has been talking about his adaptation philosophy that he wants any film project to be a film or TV show first, and use that art form rather than try to be lavish to literary details. He wants a lot of control, but he has a healthy detachment from specific details that this may just work.

This sounds really promising - I am excited for it! in 2030 if we're lucky

haha no, in Murderbot his internal thoughts and meanderings are quite important and most importantly: entertaining! The inner monologues in Sanderson are rarely entertaining and mostly frustrating ( to me at least )
